Описание: Writing Through the Visual and Virtual: Inscribing Language, Literature, and Culture in Francophone Africa and the Caribbean interrogates conventional notions of writing. The contributors--whose disciplines include anthropology, art history, education, film, history, linguistics, literature, performance studies, philosophy, sociology, translation, and visual arts--examine the complex interplay between language/literature/arts and the visual and virtual domains of expressive culture. The twenty-five essays explore various patterns of writing practices arising from contemporary and historical forces that have impacted the literatures and cultures of Benin, Cameroon, C te d'Ivoire, Egypt, Guadeloupe, Haiti, Martinique, Morocco, Niger, Reunion Island, and Senegal. Special attention is paid to how scripts, though appearing to be merely decorative in function, are often used by artists and performers in the production of material and non-material culture to tell "stories" of great significance, co-mingling words and images in a way that leads to a creative synthesis that links the local and the global, the "classical" and the "popular" in new ways.

Описание: Senegalese Stagecraft explores the theatrical stage in Senegal as a site of poetic expression, political activism, and community engagement. In their responses to the country’s colonial heritage, as well as through their innovations on the craft of theater-making, Senegalese performers have created an array of decolonizing stage spaces that have shaped the country’s theater history. Their work has also addressed a global audience, experimenting with international performance practices while proposing new visions of the role of culture and stagecraft in society. Through a study of the innovative work of Senegalese theater-makers from the 1930s onward, Senegalese Stagecraft explores a wide range of historical contexts and themes, including French colonial education, cultural Pan-Africanism, West African Sufism, uses of television and mass media, and popular theater and activism. Using a multidisciplinary approach that includes field, archival, and literary methods, Valente-Quinn offers a fresh look at performance cultures of West Africa and the Global South in a book that will interest students and scholars in African, Francophone, and performance studies.

Описание:
Comme l’a not? le philosophe Jacques Derrida, l’enregistrement des voix a ?t? l’un des ?v?nements marquants du si?cle pass?. Le sociolinguiste William Labov s’est int?ress? aux motivations sociales des variations phonologiques, mais non pas ? la voix en tant que telle. Les recherches effectu?es sur la texture et la qualit? de la voix ou la relation entre la voix et l’affect sont beaucoup plus rares. Le sujet est mentionn? dans les discussions sur la musique, le doublage, le th??tre et la traduction, sans toutefois ?tre analys? en profondeur. Les articles sur la voix correspondent en outre ? un d?veloppement relativement r?cent dans les domaines de la psycholinguistique et de la psychoacoustique, li? ? un regain d’int?r?t pour les ?tudes sur l’?motion de mani?re g?n?rale. Le pr?sent recueil d’articles offre une perspective pluridisciplinaire au carrefour entre la sociolinguistique, la phonologie et les ?tudes cin?matographiques.

Описание: This volume, originally published in 1970, presents a survey of the languages spoken in an area extending from the Atlantic coast at the Sengal River eastward to the Lake Chad region. The area covered by this volume is mainly a goegraphical one, so it follows that not all the languages included are related to one another, though a certain degree of homogeneity appears.
